ODEC 3090 - International contract law

This course aims at giving students a practitioner's insights into the issues that arise in the negotiation, drafting and interpretation of some of the standard clauses found in international contracts.

In doing so, the course will provide an overview of the different stakeholders involved in international transactions, their interests and how the legal tradition they come from may impact the way they think about the different boilerplate causes.

None.

At the start of each session, a team of students will deliver a short oral presentation (max 30 min) on the given topic, followed by questions, class discussion and lecture.

Grades will be based on the oral presentation (50%), attendance and active particpation (10%) and a final take-home examination (40%).
